Perfection is impossible!

We’re diving deep into the massive problem of plastic packaging in the beauty world—from the salon back bar to your shower at home.

@celestethestylist sits down with Dawna, co-founder of Refill Mercantile , a low-waste refillery dedicated to sustainable alternatives.

Dawna cuts through the greenwashing to expose how big retailers are misusing plastic, giving us a confusing and broken recycling system.

Crucially, we discuss how the philosophy of "progress, not perfection" can empower both hairstylists and consumers to make small, impactful changes that create real change.

In this episode, you will learn:

• For the Stylist/Salon: Actionable steps to reduce plastic waste in laundry, client retail, and back-bar essentials.

• For the Consumer: How to shop smarter, the truth about product recycling, and how to start your personal refill journey.

• The Refillery Model: Why community-based refill shops like Refill Mercantile are the future of low-waste living.

It doesn't take perfection to make a difference—it just takes a first step.

In this deeply personal episode, I share my experience with getting Botox—not for beauty, but to treat my chronic migraines.

As a hairstylist constantly around conversations about beauty and aging, this experience gave me unexpected insight.

While the Botox helped my migraines (and, yes, smoothed out my forehead), it also sparked a deeper reflection about how I want to age—and why I’ve chosen to do it without continuing Botox. If you’ve ever felt the tension between beauty standards and personal wellness, this episode is for you.

Are you a hairstylist who wants to stay consistent on Instagram, but anxiety, burnout, and overwhelm keep getting in the way? You’re not alone — and this episode of Hairstylist Mindful is for you.

You’ll also hear practical tips for:

These conversations may bring up emotions, memories, or discomfort. If you need to pause or take care of yourself at any point, please do.

*This is not medical advise just an honest conversation about what it really looks like to heal and grow — beyond the aesthetic version of wellness we often see on social media. *

This is a grounded conversation about coming back to yourself and creating a mindful, spacious business from the inside out.”

Lastly💕I hope this episode reminded you that mindfulness isn’t just meditation and morning routines—it’s also about facing what’s uncomfortable, healing what’s been hidden, and building a life and business with intention. Healing isn’t linear or glamorous, but it’s worth it. And it makes you a more grounded stylist, business owner, and human. If this resonated with you, pass it along to another beauty pro who’s doing the work too. And remember: you don’t need to be fully healed or have it all figured out to create a beautiful, balanced business. You just need to stay mindful.Follow me  ⁨@celestethestylist⁩  or gina.devine on instagram
